Will I ever finish this MA??

Here's a thing: in February I'm starting up singing lessons again for the first time in 20 years.

Thanks for all the comments and I’m sorry i didn’t get time to comment or reply more. I’m checking my comments regularly but I’m basically too busy to spend that much time here now February has gone. Got a dissertation to write!

    I’ve only just noticed you’re in Sheffield hi neighbour!

  • @wrenarcher  Mar 2022

    Hi Anya!
    Thanks so much for listening to my “Planet and Moon” song. I really appreciate the kind words. Thank you. : )

  • @lanasolyluna Mar 2022

    Sincerely thank you for all of your kind comments that really touch upon what I’m trying to achieve with music. Appreciate it deeply. Congrats on finishing FAWM and looking forward to catching up on the tracks I haven’t listened to yet!

  • @fourzeroes Feb 2022

    Had to wrack my brains to figure out who EATB was. I'm nowhere near that cool; my mumbling is far more Bernard Sumner. Vom's posted a link to a previous instance on my profile if you're after more.

  • @vomvorton  Feb 2022

    Ha! Maybe that's the true secret to acoustic magic. Do nothing!

  • @vomvorton  Feb 2022

    "is this the altarboy plugin?"
    *ding*
    "Sounds so Claire Rousey (assume that was the album you meant)"
    *dingdingding*
    *sound of money pouring out of machine*

  • @lanasolyluna Feb 2022

    You’re correct. So many human rights violations in various ways and most folks just don’t care because it doesn’t affect them.

  • @paulharrison  Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comments on my "classified" posting. Yes, I'll change that first line.

  • @lanasolyluna Feb 2022

    Thank you…otherworld is a wonderful compliment.

  • @balancelost  Feb 2022

    I used to be just like Andy. Now I say lol most days. Too much time spent playing football with teenage chavs down the park probably. I think I'm being ironic, but it's become a kneejerk thing.

  • @nahlej381  Feb 2022

    Appreciate your kind words!

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    Also spirit phone is a queer album. I will not elaborate

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    :eyes:

    I mean I have vocoders, I can just never make them sound any good. Maybe that’s the challenge

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    Show me how to make any vocoder I have access to sound as good as the one on No Eyed Girl by Lemon Demon and I’ll use it EVERYWHERE.

  • @lcad  Feb 2022

    Thanks for the comment and warm welcome sister! Still working on getting cat ears and a shark plushie, all in good time. Happy FAWM, great to have your company!

  • @nadine Feb 2022

    Thanks for your comment on Diplomacy! This song has been fun!

  • @thedutchwidows  Feb 2022

    Thanks for the Gertrude Stein pointer - am now reading some of her work online, and it's awesome. There's a rhythm and obliqueness to her style that I find very pleasing! So, thanks!

  • @shortdan  Feb 2022

    I think I got that one for free too. Haven't use it yet though - tend to gravitate to the NI ones as it's all so well integrated with my Komplete Kontrol keyboard.

  • @shortdan  Feb 2022

    The other tip was where I just write continuously and then refine it. I wrote my favourite of last year's FAWM that way!

  • @shortdan  Feb 2022

    And yes, I do remember the sparse lyrics tip you gave me. In actual fact, I've had two useful lyrical tips in my entire life and you provided me with both of them.

  • @shortdan  Feb 2022

    No! I've finally embraced Addictive Drums 2. I started liking it when I bought the Vintage Dry ADpak recently. It's lovely! :)

  • @vomvorton  Feb 2022

    All Minilogue on that one! I'm sure I'll be busting out some Casio soon though.

  • @datsch  Feb 2022

    Looking forward to another innings ...

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    There was supposed to be a laughing emoji there…

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    Yes, I wasn’t exactly subtle, I suppose

  • @jackdawfactories  Feb 2022

    My shameful secret about the lyrics of Still Us is that I made the chorus less queer for mass appeal. Originally all of the lyrics were about not being cis, and if you remove the chorus (and maybe little bits of the second prechorus) they still are!

  • @ineloquentsd  Feb 2022

    Happy FAWM 2022!

  • @karlsburg25  Jan 2022

    welcome back lovely soul. And singing lessons!!! how do you improve such perfect vocals. bring it on i say

  • @nicetrip  Jan 2022

    Hello Anya! Today I was listening to Oneohtrix Point Never and my cat went crazy sitting between the speakers. The poor boy was shocked by all this sound information.
    I just came here to wish you a good FAWM!

  • @jackdawfactories  Jan 2022

    Can't wait to hear what you come up with this year!

  • @thelowestbitter Jan 2022

    Bretagne rhymes with Anya. You can use that rhyme if you want, just give me a co-write credit

  • @tamsnumber4  Jan 2022

    Have a great FAWM!!

  • @judypie  Jan 2022

    Heeeey lady! I hope your Fawm is as splendid as ever! :D Pretty sure you always have a splendid one??

  • @doeeyes  Jan 2022

    You got an Orange amp in green, that's pretty Dada-esque right? Sorry to get all Jordan Peterson on you but TIDY YOUR ROOM (so you can enjoy FAWM more)

  • @cairobraga  Jan 2022

    I miss you on Twitter, Anya, but I've been thinking of leaving too, so... let's go to the Fediverse! hehehehe

    Happy to see you here again, can't wait to hear your new sounds. Kisses from Portus, gal. #puntastic

  • @petemurphy  Jan 2022

    Hello Anya, I hope you have an enjoyable time. I very much enjoyed your songs last year. From FAWM 2021, one of the most memorable things about the entire challenge was your bass playing.
    All the best to you.

  • @sailingmagpie  Jan 2022

    Hope you have a great FAWM!

  • @adforperu  Jan 2022

    Music!
    Keeps the people!
    Close together!
    Yeah.

  • @carleybaer  Jan 2022

    Hi, happy FAWM!

  • @vomvorton  Jan 2022

    Dear Anya,
    The piranhas in España
    feast mainly on lasagne.

  • @paulh1237  Jan 2022

    Lasagne.

    That sort of rhymes with Anya.

    I feel like this year is going to be a good year for lyrics. I'm getting that jotted down. Happy fawming!

  • @w1n  Jan 2022

    Hi
    Have a great FAWM, hope to hear new music from you.

  • @balancelost  Jan 2022

    I wanted to write a greeting in rap form, but it's amazing how few words rhyme with Anya
